In February 2013, I set myself a goal of becoming comfortable with adding faces to my artwork. I joined Ayala Art's Face a Day challenge, and set about educating myself through YouTube videos. I took in-person classes with Jodi Ohl, Pam Carriker, and Cindy Wunsch. I practiced and practiced, often posting my process on my YouTube channel.
Practicing my weakness turned it into a strength! At the start of 2016, Mindy Lacefield started an Instagram challenge called #365faces. While I haven't been able to create #afaceaday - like some of the participants, I have been creating a lot of faces! Here are some of them.
To see more, look under the hashtag #365faces on Instagram. You'll see amazing work!
Are you interested in learning more about creating faces? I've decided to share what I've learned in an online class!
My class, Facing Faces, debuts on April 4. I will have a special pre-sign up for newsletter subscribers with a discounted price - so make sure you're a subscriber!
